Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 8 slices Tomato slices
- 4 slices Onion slices
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, sour cream, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Use your hands or a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the burgers tough.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties roughly 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Use your thumb to make a slight indentation in the center of each patty; this will help the burgers maintain their shape while cooking.
Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or skillet to prevent sticking.
Cook the patties on the grill or skillet for 4–5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. For medium doneness, the internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C). If using cheese, add a slice to each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
While the patties cook, toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster for added texture and flavor.
Assemble the burgers: Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun, followed by a patty. Top with 2 slices of tomato, a slice of onion, and any additional toppings you like. Finish with the top half of the bun.
Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries, a salad, or coleslaw. Enjoy!
